Microsoft To Not Release New Media Center
Microsoft plans to go without a new release of Windows XP Media Center Edition for the first time in 3 years according to a company spokesperson.
Microsoft will offer an update to Media Center Edition 2005.
"It is looking more like it will be an update, not a new version," says Microsoft Product Manager Tom Laemmel.
A PC World article says:
"Each year for the past three years Microsoft has introduced new versions of Media Center in time for the December shopping season. The releases started with the original Media Center in 2002. The current 2005 version was introduced in October last year.
While it is still determining packaging and naming for Longhorn, Microsoft has decided that it will continue to sell Media Center as a premium version of the operating system for home use, Laemmel says. Earlier this year, Microsoft spokespeople had suggested that Media Center capabilities might be folded into the basic Windows version."
